When Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell made indie horror history with the relentless low budget The Evil Dead in 1980, you knew it was only a matter of time before a sequel was to be churned out and in this case the sequel turned out to be almost more of a remake (due to the fact that they couldn't use the footage from the first film to create a recap!),

In the eighties, after Gremlins proved a massive success, there was bit of a cottage industry wherein weird little monsters were all the rage. There were, of course, the Ghoulies films but so too were there New Line’s Critters pictures. Shout! Factory, in a rather surprising move, has collected the four films and not only deemed them worthy of a Blu-ray releases but special edition releases no less!

Critters:

The first film opens with a bit of a prologue where we learn that members of a tiny but vicious race of aliens known as ‘Crites’ escaped from an outer space prison planet. Where did they land? On the Brown family farm! The Brown’s seem like a pretty

When word got out that Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi were brining Ash back in television form, rather than in a new Evil Dead feature film, there was plenty of concern voiced loud and clear by the franchise’ very vocal fan community. And for good reason. There was, after all, a very good chance that the property would be further homogenized after already being somewhat tamed down for Army Of Darkness.
